I'm getting good lifts, but both yesterday and today I was completely spent before the end of my workout, which is unusual for me. I have been going with more intensity, especially on heavy days, since I only will go heavy on a given area once every three weeks.

It's only been the last two workouts that I have noticed it, volume legs yesterday, heavy chest today. I'll take tomorrow off and go heavy back on Wednesday. I also wonder if my light days have maybe been more medium than light... I'm not sick *touch wood* and I've been getting normal sleep for me - about 7 or 7.5 hrs/night during the week.
